Bill Murray confronted Bob Woodward at the Kennedy Center regarding Woodward's 1984 book, "Wired," about John Belushi, whom Murray considered a close friend. This encounter took place after Murray's critical remarks on a podcast, where he expressed disdain for Woodward's methods, arguing they relied on distant sources rather than intimate knowledge. Murray's comments emphasized his belief that Woodward's portrayal of Belushi was "criminal" and deeply flawed, raising questions about the integrity of the investigation into the late actor's life and struggles.
"I read like five pages of 'Wired,' and I went, 'Oh my God. They framed Nixon.'"
"If this is what he writes about my friend... which is completely inaccurate, talking to like, the people of the outer, outer circle, getting the story - what the hell could they have done to Nixon?"
"You're telling me that that guy... is telling you the facts about John Belushi? That guy way the f-k over there is telling you who John Belushi is?"
"I was very, very close to John, and I think this is a criminal way to treat my friend."
